General Discussion

I saw about your site a couple of days ago, and I'd like to try these apps out. But I've been unable to download *anything* from the sourceforge repository "kent.dl.sourceforge.net" for almost 48 hours. What's up?

1) Are extended outages like this normal? When can I download these apps?
2) Why are you using only one sourceforge repository? Why not use several? Redundancy will help you avoid things like this in the future.

Does anyone know what exactly this key does? It seems to track every executable run recently. I know there are other keys that hinder true portability, but I was wondering if anyone knew about this one in particular.

Is there a portable Fax?

I've fixed the site search from the main toolbar. If you went directly to the search page, it worked, but not from the toolbar. This was due to a Drupal upgrade applied late last night to fix a security vulnerability. In the process, it changed the way forms work (with tighter validation). The custom theme used by the site didn't have this validation applied, so Drupal was rejecting anything you entered. I've updated the theme to work with the new validation.

Long story short: you can use the search box again.

While I was serching for linux distros on google, I found this http://www.handheld-linux.com Its awsome! Its like a full linux distro exept on a blackberry type thing. Talk about portable!

Yes, I feel very stupid asking Mr.Haller somthing. Its not like you go into a microsoft fourm and say "Oye!" "Bill!" like you know him. but any way, wouldent it be good to put a spell cheacker on the comment poster thingy? It would be good for people like me. Seeing as I've probebly spelt somthing wrong alerdy in this topic.

I have made a group on Google Groups.

There's an issue with load yet again on the server. I'm working with a higher-level Linux / mySQL support at RackSpace to attempt to optimize the mySQL settings to alleviate the issue. I'll post a note back when things are settled. Until then, expect the server to be slow to load things up and very slow when you post something.

(Looks like just keeping the server running is going to consume even more of my life again... )

My Environement:

- 2GB USB Stick
- TrueCrypt encrypted virtual volume (on the stick)

It would be nice, if I could set the data directory for my portable apps to a seperate drive (to an absolute instead of a relative path)

Portability is not a problem, as you can always mount the TrueCrypt partition on the same drive letter (... yes, you will need administrativ rights to do so)

For Example:

I have a mounted TrueCrypt Volume on S:, so the path to the settings for, lets say, thunderbird should be: S:\data\thunderbird\profiles or similar

This way, the settings are all stored in a secure place on the stick.

Is there an awsome-fast browser besides FFP and Opera? Dose not have to be Portable.
